The problem with Drew is that she's stuck with Simon. And whenever Simon champions a female he makes them do the same thing, over and over and over and over. I'll never understand his obsession with with female performers and boring ballads (*cough* Leona Lewis *cough*).
I didn't like Drew's performance last week, but this is the week where it really felt like she's going to lose steam if she doesn't give us something fresh. The "goofy girl with the angelic soft voice" bit has gotten stale, and in the face of all the drama she's really becoming quite forgettable. The audience is no longer in awe of her voice - she's proven she can sing. Now give us something that won't put us to sleep.
Simon likes his artists to show consistency with their sound, but he needs to remember that some of American Idol's big winners sealed their victory by singing something unexpected and knocking it out of the park (Fantasia Barrino singing "Summertime", Carrie Underwood singing "Alone", Kelly Clarkson singing...well, everything).
